If you trust Wikipedia...here is what it says about the 3-URFE Manufacturing locations. "This engine is cast at Toyota's Bodine Aluminum and currently assembled for Sequoia and Tundra at Toyota Motor Manufacturing Alabama and cast and assembled in Tahara, Japan for the Land Cruiser and Lexus vehicles. "

@OGBeno. Can you shed any light on casting marks; letters and or numbers, indicating plant and possible date?
